Read the full agent description
This wonderful character home has a wealth of original features including flag stone flooring, original Victorian floor tiles, ceiling cornices and mullioned windows to describe just a few.
The attractive stone built property is at the end of a terrace of three similar properties and is fairly unique having a generous garden to the rear with an open aspect and a double garage.
The accommodation comprises on the ground floor, a wide entrance door leading into the spacious entrance hall which has the original tiled floor and staircase to the first floor. A door leads off to the generous lounge which has a bay window to the front elevation and an original ornate fireplace with inset wood burning stove and quarry tiled hearth. Double doors lead into the kitchen.
The characterful living dining kitchen is at the rear of the property and has an original flagstone floor, a full range of shaker style wall, base and drawer units with granite working surfaces over. The gas fired Aga is set to operate all year round and there is an attractive exposed brick wall with stone detail.
Two windows to the rear elevation and door leading out to the timber and stone conservatory which has a continuation of the flagstone floor, an antique ceramic sink and downstairs WC.
A door from the kitchen leads down to a keeping cellar.
On the first floor, the most generous size master bedroom has a window to the rear with lovely views over the garden and the open aspect beyond along with an original fireplace. The ensuite is equally generous in size having a four piece suite including a step in shower enclosure.
Bedroom two is at the front of the property with mullioned windows and an original fireplace. The house bathroom is also on this floor and has a three piece suite including a shower over the bath.
On the second floor are two further bedrooms, both with velux windows and plenty of eaves storage.
The outside space at this lovely property is really unique. The deep front garden is stone wall enclosed with slate beds and ornamental box bushes. At the side a long driveway leads down to a double garage with parking in front of it.
A cobbled service access path is immediately to the rear of the property and leads to a very long rear garden which is laid to lawn. A paved seating area has a stone built covered area providing shelter and wood storage.
Beyond the garden is the open aspect to the recreation ground and the moors beyond.
